5/5 Excellent

"It was a decent distance from SoFi Stadium but we were actually able to walk back after a concert. It's a long walk but we were joined by many other people walking back so it felt safe enough. The hotel itself was very nice. Clean, well appointed. No problems. I would stay again for an activity at SoFi. It was reasonably priced and close enough."
